Breast Augmentation Sparta Township, NJ | NJ Aesthetic Surgery - Dr. Rafailov

Understanding Breast Augmentation

Breast augmentation is a surgical procedure designed to enhance the shape and size of a woman's breasts using silicone or saline implants. The procedure can increase breast volume, achieve a more rounded breast shape, and improve asymmetry between breasts.

Procedure Options

• Silicone implant placement
• Saline implant placement
• Fat transfer augmentation

Good Candidates for Breast Augmentation

Ideal candidates for breast augmentation include:

• Women 18 years or older for saline implants
• Women 22 years or older for silicone implants
• Individuals in good physical health
• Non-pregnant and non-breastfeeding patients
• Patients seeking improvement in breast size or symmetry

Implant Types

Silicone Breast Implants

FDA-approved for women 22 and older, silicone implants are pre-filled with soft gel and closely mimic natural breast tissue. Often referred to as "gummy bear" implants, they provide a natural look and feel.

Saline Breast Implants

FDA-approved for women 18 and older, saline implants are filled with sterile saltwater after placement. They offer flexibility in volume adjustment during surgery.

Surgical Preparation and Recovery

NJ Aesthetic Surgery provides comprehensive pre-operative instructions and post-surgical care guidelines. Patients should plan for assistance during initial recovery and follow specific activity restrictions.

Important Considerations

• Implants may require future replacement
• Hormonal changes can impact implant appearance
• Annual surgical evaluations are recommended

Cost Considerations

Breast augmentation is an individualized procedure with costs varying based on patient needs. This elective surgery is typically not covered by health insurance. Financing options through CareCredit are available.
